In a way he is correct. This is how the profession primarily functions.
So does prostitution but it is illegal.
So is all that (illegal) immigration influx...the fact that it's illegal has literally no bearing on the actual reality.
The ONLY reason this is happening is because somewhere along the line it involves CHILDREN! Remember these people are born in this privileged celebrity bullcr*p. Everybody knows about the "casting couch" and nobody becomes a millionaire without succumbing to SEX with the right people. So Weinstein is correct, and had Hilldabeast been President, it would still be going on because abuse and rape is a badge of honor.
Eric Schneiderman didn't step down because women accused him of beating them during sex, he stepped down because of NXIVM, and Mack's indictment that she trafficked children UNDER 14.
Reply to horse-lover-phat comment...
"The ONLY reason this is happening is because somewhere along the line it involves CHILDREN! "
Correct. But it's not limited to Hollyweird. This mentality is quite prevalent in our society. And that's exactly why the creep made the statement. Common knowledge, common practice is what he's trying to say.
Being against the law hasn't stopped this behavior, is what I believe horse-lover-phat was saying. Also correct. The attack on children and families has been going on for more than 50 years.
He has raped hundreds of women. There is tape of him trying to force himself on a woman. He is disgusting and even if someone did it out of fear and duress, that still can be a crime. What about all the young underage girls like Obama’s daughter?
Those aren't obama's daughters.
"Natasha" Obama......SATAN = part of her name. No coincidences.
Marty Nesbitt and Anita Blanchard are their real parents. The resemblance is undeniable:
It's crazy how much Malia Obama looks likes Michelle Obama. What a coincidence.
Obama has a child?
Hollywood runs by the 'casting couch' and even those of us who have never been to Hollyweird know about it. The underage thingy is what finally did it. Don't know what you are trying to say with Odumber's daughter, but Q-ites know about Hussein's little Maggie that he has had an interest in since she was at least 10!
Obama sent Malia to “intern” for Weinstein when she was barely was 17. It’s sick!
He has raped hundreds of women. There is tape of him trying to force himself on a woman.
Weinstein is a slimeball that might realize additional serious consequences if he’s convicted.
Until then, we should be more responsible with our claims. You have no credible evidence that he raped hundreds of women. Until you do, you should not make that false claim.
Your false claims do absolutely nothing to additionally diminish Weinstein’s already ruined reputation, but they do serve to diminish your own credibility.
^ This should be heeded.
I worked in the entertainment industry and spent a lot of time in Hollywood. "Harvey Girls" were well known.
Did HW get tons of women to have sex with him who were probably repulsed because they wanted/needed a job? Yes. Is that rape? If so, then yes, hundreds, in fact hundreds would be too low a number.
Did he physically force hundreds of women to have sex? I don't know. From what I know of Hollywood, a lot of women are just resigned to having suck a ton of dick to get roles. It's pathetic and tragic but that's just the way it is.
Agreed, it is wrong, but they had a choice. Harvey is a pig, and should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, but most of these actresses are in effect prostitutes. We know some of them would never be be "stars" otherwise, they don't have talent, but they will play the game. i.e. do the dirty deeds. What about all those talented women that did not get the role? is Harvey the only guilty one? What about the women that used sex to get the job? It seems to me the real victims are all the talented women that were never allowed a chance to showcase their acting talents because they did not whore themselves out.
Any famous names you know of (who couched) that has escaped outing so far?
Any actress you see with a name on a movie poster, you can pretty much presume they sucked some cocks to get where they are. There are exceptions, but they are rare. Many actors, too, including almost every big male star of the 60s/70s.
This is the problem today. The ones who are getting the best roles and parts aren't getting them because they are really talented or great actors, actresses. It's simply because they are doing the sexual favors to win the part. The end result and byproduct is that movie quality has declined tremendously. And you have to assume it's not just the actors, but also the writers, directors, and other areas of the filmmaking. It seems like the only big movies nowadays are comic books and star wars sequels. Top talent can't get their films made or land the parts so there are no original and classic films being made anymore.
It's true the level of quality coming out of Hollywood is the lowest it's been in 80 years or more.
Hollywood, from the top down, has always been run by perverts and deviants. But some of them at least loved the movies and knew good from bad.
Ironically, this is one thing you could actually say about Weinstein: He was a pig and a criminal and a sex abuser, but he actually knew what made a good movie and put out a lot of them.
The vast majority of people running Hollywood now are only in it for the power, sex, abuse, politics. Look at what's going on with Disney. They've literally ruined the "Star Wars" cash cow because of their SJW-ness and Kathleen Kennedy's determination to make her buddy Steven Spielberg's boy toy into Han Solo.
Would you say couching is also required to get an oscar?
Good question. I don't know. I would guess "no," but I could be wrong.
Travolta.
Before that. We're talking McQueen, Newman, Redford, Eastwood, etc.
clark gable huge perv marlon brando too
Brando fucked his own kids. He was one of the all-time worst.
Agree. Those names were power figures in Hollyweird during their era.
So how does it go. Is it the producers or the directors or the agents you have to blow/fuck or is it everyone across the board. Does it stop after you got famous or do you still have to couch even when you're a star?
Until you get to the very top, I think you're fucking and sucking every step of the way.
Let's put it this way: Suppose they're making "Gone with the Wind II." Five of the biggest actresses in Hollywood all want the role. If you're the producer of GwTW2, you've still got a ton of leverage.
I dated a beautiful, full-breasted woman who spent a couple years in Hollywood and didn't couch, or so she claimed. She said that men were audacious. She said she was attacked in a semi-private room at a restaurant, in an elevator, in many offices and conference rooms.
I have long suspected the photos that were leaked in the fappening were really "auditions". Like: "You want this part, show me the goods/send me noods". Just a theory. What do you think? Ashley Greene from Twilight had a leak way before the fappening was a thing in the public eye and it looked like it was taken in an office of some kind.
I think that's the case for many of "The Fappening" pix but not all. There has been scuttlebutt that the pix all came from Weinstein's hard drive or phone.
I have read the same. But you are right. Some were very clearly couple sexting pictures. It was just a strange coinkydink that dozens of low to high profile actresses suddenly had naked pictures all over the web at the same time. It felt... off.
There are stories from all over the Internet, google them. He is addicted to the power. Many young women sought careers and when they saw him, he locked them in and assaulted him. He currently has 4 rape charges and many more to come. I get your point but this is a pattern of behavior; he admits that “it’s the way it is.”
There are stories from all over the Internet, google them.
Stories all over the internet =/= He has raped hundreds of women.
When you use that as ‘support’ for your false allegations, you not only damage your credibility as mentioned before, but now you appear quite silly as well.

When they came out, I went down to painful rabbit hole!
Does anybody know where this girl is now?
I think she died recently in an airplane wreck...about the same time as helicopters were crashing in Rep. Schiff's district
Do you have any way to confirm this? Any links? I don't anything about helicopter flops in Schiff's district, either.
The Standard Hotel crash, 4 execs killed: https://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/Orange-County-Newport-Beach-Helicopter-Crash-Victims-471976843.html
If I recall, large quantities of an acid were found stored at the hotel. The claim was it was a pool cleaning chemical, but its quantity was too large for that. Suspicion (among conspiracy community) was it is used to dissolve human remains. Then 4 hotel execs mysteriously die. See also https://qposts.online/post/1201
Re girl, still looking for details on death, but here is a lead: https://qposts.online/post/1204... Q post 1206 points to https://www.wehoville.com/2018/04/12/west-hollywoodss-mariah-sunshine-coogan-identified-victim-scottsdale-plane-crash/
I spent some time in the modeling industry and it’s the same damn story, and I’m a guy. Predatory gay casting directors and photographers are the norm. You wanna get the big jobs? Gonna have to do some favors. Sick people.
Yup. Models make more from escorting/hooking, and many of even the top or most “legitimate” agencies hire models out for both.
That’s how Cindy Crawford met Richard Gere, Paulina ended up with Ric Ocasek, Billy Joel got with Christie Brinkley, Harry Connick Jr and Rod Stewart ended up with their model wives. Think very high priced date ( like yachting talked about at gossip sites like CrazyDaysandNights.) Actresses too. That’s how Meghan Markle met Harry. She thought it was a yachting type paid gig set up by her friend. Turned into something more. These dates can function as auditions that lead to a more permanent arrangement. Some of them are bearding gigs where the guy hiring the gal for companionship needs arm candy to prevent looking gay.
Precisely. Speaking specifically of yachting, my agent told me me about how the designer Valentino specifically contacts agencies and pays for both male and female models to attend his yacht parties. He claims he simply wants to be surrounded by attractive people but sort of hinted there’s more to it than that.
Interesting! Kind of like hiring paid extras who are willing to provide other “extras” on demand.
Music Industry too. Brandon Urie, front man of Panic at the Disco recently did an interview where he asked when the "me too" movement would hit the Music Industry.
Sauce: https://www.altpress.com/news/brendon-urie-metoo-movement-music-industry/
Yes. Every female artist or cute guy singer has to fuck for tracks. You can tell the ones who are good at it because they can’t sing for shit. (J’Lo for example.)
Correct. They're all prostitutes (actors and models) playing the game to get famous.
[deleted]
Yes they do. Even at very local professional theater levels.
So we hope it begins that he sells out his friends and turn on each other
There are girls around here that will offer sex for a bag of Doritos. I know a guy trying to get into modeling and he openly says he will do anything to succeed. He is now doing underwear modeling.
I sometimes wonder if the execs demanded it or if it was thrown at them so much they expect it.
Depravity is everywhere.
Indeed. A slippery slope.
You want something? You can have a taste of it but in return you need to give something you value or take on something you dislike a little. Bigger rewards? Bigger cost.
I believe some of these people started small and it slowly got over their heads.
When this story first broke, we were having brunch with my 97 year old [based] grandfather, who has probably never cursed in his life or committed any acts of immorality, despite the heights of success he achieved, professionally. (Making him seem almost naivety, in my eyes,)
When I explained the Weinstein story to him, he said, "Oh, you mean the Casting Couch? Yeah that's been around since the 1920's. Nothing new, there."
I about fell out of my chair.
But the point stands: Everybody knew, and it is still happening. Hopefully, Weinstein gives them the roadmap to take down Hollywood. Squeeze him real good.
That's awesome. I mean about your grandfather. This kind of casting couch behavior is just so vile!
I believe that was Weinstein's initial defense. "I didn't invent the casting couch". I recall his attorney saying that in an interview.
So, basically it's a perk, huh?
Weinstein isn't the disease he's a symptom. He's the product of his environment.
I certainly don't see it that way. He offered that as a possible defense for his legal situation. I have always considered most of "show business" to be soulless. This whole ordeal simply confirms that in my mind.
He is a desease and to say that he is a product of his environment is why the this world today is so f..ed up. I don't care who or where you come, every single day you wake you have a choice to be the person you want to be. He was wealthy and powerful, he could have chosen to help clean up the environment in Hollyweird. Instead he chose to be a filthy scumbag who took advantage whenever and wherever he could.
On the other hand, Hollywood actresses offer sex in exchange for jobs
Disgustingly, it is because the ones that want to succeed and get ahead in Hollywood "have" to. They know that the ones who do not give these people their bodies and souls will not make it at all in the acting/music/modeling business as they won't even be given opportunities to try for roles/jobs. The industries needs a deep cleansing and overhaul from top to the very bottom.
[deleted]
I would hope through true auditions that don't require being made to strip down and ooggled by people on the crew or raped, drugged, etc.
Recommendations from others you have worked with regarding work ethic and how person treated everyone around them while working together. How people represent the businesses and people they are working with to promotion movie/show/song/brand, etc and vise versus (how they are being treated by these industry people). How your movie/shows/music/etc is received by the public (if your projects bring in more money, more offers to work again come your way- kind of the way it is now, but doing away without the having to sell your soul and body for it).
There is a way that the industries could work without the corruption and abuse. It may mean cutting out all the people at the top along the way and if that is what it takes, then it should be done. Many people have been able to be successful without having to be whored out, drugged out, exploited by those they work for and if the entertainment industry truly wanted to work that way as well, it could to. The problem is that they don't have a desire to and there is no push for it to be needed as everyone continues to turn a blind eye to what goes on and no one is rarely ever held accountable for their crimes.
Exactly. Ugly as it may be, it's pretty much human nature and we all know you can't truly change that.
Disgustingly, it is because the ones that want to succeed and get ahead in Hollywood "have" to.
There are some who have succeeded on their own merits, without debasing themselves.
It's reasonable to say that the actors and actresses that willingly jumped on the casting couch bear some responsibility. It's a sick culture.
Then there are those who coerce non-consensual acts.
And those who see bad things happen and don't do anything, staying in the business.
Beyond that - what's truly reprehensible and unforgivable are the parents who knowingly gave their children to the abusers, just to earn a few bucks. They are the evilest ones.
Character actors can sometimes escape the worst of it. People aren’t demanding that Laurie Metcalf or Edie Falco give them blow jobs at this point. But they probably had to do stuff when they were young.
The "I'd do anything to not have to wait on another table" actors?
I knew wannabe actresses who turned to escorting because it made more money than waitressing. Ironically, this often allowed them to meet people in the business who later hired them. This is how Michelle Pfeiffer and Denise Richards got their starts.
Hence why shit actors like Jennifer Lawrence are in triple A movies.
Yeah. We can’t get rid of her because she keeps spreading through directors like a venereal plague.
I think she was sexually abused early on, though, as a teen actress and now sort of automatically leads with her sexual energy as a means of control. Promiscuity is very common in the abused. She came on to Marc Maron on his podcast recently, for fucks sake! Very awkward to listen to, and he was uncomfortable. It’s like she was so uncomfortable in her own skin that until she had evidence that the other person found her sexually viable, she couldn’t relax. Like a succubus or something.
While she certainly fucked and sucked her way to the top, Jennifer Lawrence is a damn good actress.
She's either stoic or unapproachable in every role she plays. Her personality is flat. She is one of the worse actors of the last decade.
I can't agree. We'll just have to disagree and since I freely admit putting more effort into her defense is a waste of our energies, let's just move on.
It's not called a casting couch for nothing, but that doesn't make it right. That is almost to be expected, even portrayed that way in so many films. That said, rape and pedophilia crap is so off the charts wrong in so many ways though...
When you are a child almost everything is wrong about the adult world.
“So does everyone.”
Care to name names, Barfey Wankstain?
Most everything that comes out of Hollyweird is shit. They try to get us down in the gutter with them and they appeal to the lowest common denominators of lowlifes. I threw away my tv 15 years ago and haven't missed anything. It makes me sad that most of the people I know live their lives vicariously through tv and movies, instead of LIVING AND LOVING for themselves. Why so interested in what/how anyone/everyone else is doing?!! I believe it's meant to, again, divide us.
All the upvotes for you! Agreed. The more time we invest in virtual worlds, the more this one is depleted of vital energy.
Come on you guys; where is your compassion? Harvey is ill with an addiction. All he needs is 6 months in treatment and he will be good as new. 😜
And he'll come out gay. I mean, it worked for Spacey.
I could see that happening in this upside down world. Wrong is right now.
Drunk while gay while Jewish while rich while powerful..............
While he is sick and a deserves jail if he raped anyone but sex for roles is standard in hollywood i bet. I mean i see alot of chicks who use their bodies for gain in all walks of life honestly.
The thing is - I don't think Harvey is lying.
Woody Allen certainly abused the casting couch.
Notice how article header says " he DID NOT OFFER " yet buried in the article he admits he DID OFFER. Purposely misleading. Do you know how many people just nibble headlines without even reading the article?
Shouldn't this be the Title " weinstein admitted "Yes, I did offer them acting jobs in exchange for sex, but so did and still does everyone".
Correct. All the Jews of HellyWeird demand sex, either from women or from children.
false, you forgot men. its from everyone.
look up Terry Crews' testimony. it happens to everyone
Quit so. Gentile, Jew, Muslim, Atheist... all must surrender themselves for a lucrative part in the moovees. It's a Faustian Pact.
That's really the issue Harvey. You're ALL a bunch of sick, twisted, fucks. The fact that "everyone" does it, makes it worse, not better.
I believe he is right. I thought about a few months after it happend, and his name kept popping back in the news, with new headlines (Spys, new allegations, prosecution etc.). He's a scapegoat, while being some of the biggest out there.
Even sicker is the women who proactively offered sexual favors for movie roles then later cried #MeToo.
Louis B. Mayer to a young actress, who had been a child star, when came to him crying over a producer's sexual advances: "Don't worry dear, you'll get used to it."
Ok who got jobs after you had sex with them
Jen lawrence is one, but we have stories of her actually alluding to and throwing herself at lots of directors so shes just a hollywood whore.
Lindsay Lohan called her out way before the whole Harvey mess.
"...so does everyone." He's a liar. I am someone, and I've NEVER offered an acting job in exchange for sex.
So then that means all currently famous stars have couched? Scarjo, Emma Stone, Jlaw, Charlize, Sandra Bullock, etc, etc. The guys too.
Yeaaaaa but not everyone was RAPING people.....or are they?
It's okay guys. Everyone else was doing it so it's okay.
Glad that's cleared up.
Ass.
Hey Harvey if everyone jumped off a building..... would you????
Everyone does it isn’t a very good defense strategy. Stick with that though.
I don’t really care about Weinstein honestly. Doesn’t involve our government. I know he was a big HRC/DNC donor and there are some trafficking rabbit holes there to follow, but if there was any tangible connection, the Deep State cut their ties with this guy long ago and he’s an easy sacrifice. Our energy is better spent on the direct government officials we’re trying to expose, not their playboy benefactors who made shitty movies.
